Loud Mouth Brown Girl

Twenty-Twenty-Six is literally just around the corner. And for the last few years, I haven’t been so great at choosing my words. My Power Words in particular.

I’ve actually taken some time to think about this, and so I’ve chosen 3 words for this year. The first word for 2026 is:

Enrichment

I only want people, places, and things that are going to enrich my life and give me the quality of life to which I plan to become accustomed.

I am tired of struggle, I am tired of poverty, and more importantly, I am insulted that after everything I’ve done to build community, I am still on my own, pushing forward against the weight of a world that continues to tell people like myself to shut the fuck up.

Don’t get me wrong, I love my life today. Everything, everyone, and every place I have is close to my heart, and I want to keep it that way. So if it doesn’t enrich my life, it will not be a part of my journey.

The second word I’ve chosen for 2026 is equally as important as the first. The second lays the foundation for what is to come next. Now, I am fully aware the universe is going to try and mess with me, the way she does everyone, but I also believe that if I work hard enough, I’ll be able to show the universe I mean business.

So, all being said, my second word is:

Majickal

I am fully aware that I have lived a life filled with trauma. However, if I am being honest, I’ve also been gifted a decent amount of blessings as well. I’ve been given time to heal, to put space between myself and my abusers, and that is more than many women ever get.

I want to embrace things that are majickal, people and places as well, and I want to use majick to build a foundation that helps other women harness their own form of spirituality in a way that enriches their lives in majickal ways as well.

And to that end, my final word for 2026 is going to be the most important of them all, mainly because it’s something that I’ve wanted my whole life. It’s something that I distinctly remember craving at the ripe old age of ten years old, and something I’ve never been able to find.

For 2026, my final word of the year is:

Affulence

I’ve never really been the kind of person who craved wealth, but that’s because I also wasn’t the kind of person who wanted to be like everyone else. I’d have been perfectly fine in a cabin in the woods with my computer, my weed, and myself.

But the world has other ideas, and so, for now, I am going to acquiesce to the desires of the universe and work within the matrix instead of against it.

That doesn’t mean that I am suddenly going to choose to work with brands, organizations, or companies that do not believe in a free distribution of wealth that benefits everyone on the planet.

I have always said I started Loud Mouth Brown Girl for myself, for the little girl no one ever defended. But that doesn’t fly anymore. Now it has to be for the community. That’s why I want to spend 2026 highlighting Black, Biracial, Canadian, Neurodivergent and or Queer artists.

I want this brand to mean something to all little girls, so that all little Brown Girls know that they have a place to go. Yes, even if they are trans girls. Especially then.

I want to raise the capital I need to open the first Black, Non-Binary, Neurodivergent, Cannabis Cafe in my area that offers services and or jobs to women escaping domestic violence.

I’ve thought a lot about this and I fully believe that I can do it, I just need some stability and some space to make my dreams come true.

I’ve never really looked at challenges and thought, “I can’t do that.” I’ve looked at them and decided I didn’t want to, sure.

But I’ve never thought I couldn’t do something, I don’t know that I’ve ever let myself think anything other than “why not me?”

Except the one time I was in a hospital at thirteen and my dr turned out to be an abuser. That was the one time I thought to myself, “I don’t want to be successful.”

Because successful as written by the mouth of an abuser didn’t feel or taste like success to me. It felt like being moulded into someone who still couldn’t say no.

I very much want to take these power words and build on them with action that helps push me toward the dream of being a successful business owner.

To those who knew me before, knowing I want to work in the cannabis industry might be a shock. But to them I say:

You never knew me. You knew the version of me I felt safe enough to show you. And for that, you almost killed me.

I’m finally going to accept that I am free from abuse, domestic violence and cults, I am finally going to accept my reality so I can move forward. I think that’s how manifestation works, right?

Sending all my love,

Devon J Hall,

The Original Loud Mouth Brown Girl
